Those elusive 10's are mine !! Mikey was nice enough to meet me halfway tonight with my car (he had it for repairs) at Cecil. So I had to run it while there. Big crowds, poor staging lane management, and a new C5 hitting both walls <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> slowed things down some. I wasn't expecting much since I knew I had a converter in my car that was very mismatched to my cam (originally chose the Yank UT4800 cause we were going to try a big cam. Went with a smaller cam instead). But it still got me into the 10's:
2 0f 3 runs in the 10's. Here's the best:
R/T .614
60' 1.521
330 4.452
1/8 6.960
mph 97.95
1000 9.120
1/4 10.940
mph 123.70
Now you A4 guys in the 10's or 11's know that my 60' isn't good enough. More like mid 1.4x. So a converter change is the first step to digging deeper. Also, the car hasn't had any dyno tuning with this setup, so that's also on the priority list. More details later <img border="0" alt="[boring]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_zzz.gif" />

Re: Those elusive 10's are mine !! Thanks Allan, that's the plan. I think the UT4800 has it's place, but it may be with the bigger cubed setups or the very high rev power band guys.

Re: Those elusive 10's are mine !! It most be wonderful to run in the 10's. I wish I could run in the mid 11's. Great job. I am sure with the 4400 comvertor times will come jumping <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> down.

Good job Dave and Mikey it was fun to be there to see it. I know that car has consistent 10's in it.

Re: Those elusive 10's are mine !! EXCELLENT! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
Let's get that bad boy on the dyno, look at the curve and get the converter stalled to match.
BTW, the UT4800 is not for big cubes. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Those elusive 10's are mine !! Yes it is, Chris. Honestly, I'd have kept your cam if I knew we were going to be so close in specs. We were first going to go with a lumberjack cam but decided against.
